They work. Simply put they have controls in place so that certain things can and can’t be brought. The issue is people need to go to the shop to use them. But I believe it’s a fat more effective way of letting families use the money better for their kids

Supermarkets take vouchers online for delivery and collection too - no need to visit the shop if shopping somewhere with the infrastructure.

Obviously there's always the small risk of a grey market for them but that's not really going to happen at levels to be of concern.

Pass
I don’t know if they were accepting them that way
I do know that yet again the whole issue is being spun one way then another with DJ little facts being used, just opinions
I’m all for opinions. We all have them, and their like arseholes... they sometimes stink

What keys is kids need feeding and kids need educating.
I’ve seen some shocking things lately and it’s appalling how kids are being left currently

A girl in my daughters class has to join the teams call the other day to day she couldn’t do school work as her mum had the phone and was at work. This kid was asking to be signed off sick so she didn’t get her mum in trouble and also so she didn’t get a “bad mark”
It’s appalling. She is a good kid and her mum is a chav but not a bad person by any means (she did used to bully my wife and this kid will end up going the same way). She even said she doesn’t want to fall behind her friends
I mean FFS... surely we can help these kids out with something

I think you're preaching to the wrong crowd. Tell the teaching unions - if not for them those kids would be in school next week.

EDIT: To detail out the voucher method. So a school would sign up to a scheme similar to all of the employee benefit ones we often see and deposit £x for each child in that account. Parents can then draw on that in vouchers for the supermarket of their choice. Those vouchers can be used online like any other supermarket voucher.

Satire is dead. Jeffrey Donaldson from the DUP on the radio this morning bleating about the effects of Brexit on Northern Ireland - from the party who believed the government's promises and whole-heartedly supported it (until they realised what the realtiy would be).

The DUP gambled that a hard brexit would mean a hard land border with the GFA a casualty of the event. A slight miscalculation on their part.
